26 weeks!

     One more week in the second trimester! I cannot believe I will be in the third trimester next week! It is insane. I feel so gigantic, and I know I'm only going to get bigger. Other than just feeling huge and seeing everything jiggle, I feel okay. I'm a bit slower to move these days. Connor wants me in one room and then in another room. He grabs my hand and gets frustrated if it takes me 10 seconds to stand. Haha. Ya can't really explain why you are so incredibly slow to a 22 month old. I haven't started swelling yet. My rings still fit, my feet are still boney, and I haven't really been retaining any water. I've been pretty careful about the sodium intake though, and I drink a lot of water. Hopefully that will keep me from swelling too terribly. The weight gain sucks, but I'm still "on target" according to the calculators. I know it will come off, but I'm at the point of just feeling big and uncomfortable. I'm so excited though! Things are really coming together, we have the double stroller set up, and I finalllly bought Austin a couple of outfits. I am having a really hard time buying him clothes though since Austin and Connor are the same seasons in size. I'm going to a "Just Between friends" sale tomorrow, so I will hopefully get more stuff there as well. :) Well, there isn't a whole lot else going on, so here's my survey and a couple of pics!
